I first had a look at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/ where there are no 'cpufreq/' (only 'online') source

Then I went to the BIOS where I set (forgive the approximations in some terms) CPU-blabla to "Battery Optimized" "Authorize external applications to control blabla". Now the CPU stays glued to 497,923MHz even if I'm currently running on AC Power :?:

Ummmm... what did you do then? I have the same problem not being able to modprobe the powernow-k7 module.

what processor do you have?

Got CPU frequency scaling working properly! Thanks!]]>https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=26722005-06-29T16:17:17Zhttps://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=96802#p96802for cpu freq changes, I have to modprobe "p4_clockmod" - it depends on your processor...

ACPI itself doesn't give you any power savings - it just gives you events to respond to.... the acpi interface will give you "psst someone close the lid" or "hey, AC adapter is unplugged" but not "hey I'm going to use less battry power"

Maybe I should check my BIOS... I might have disabled them or something...
